First Watch may be a chain restaurant, but it definitely doesn't taste like one. They never disappoint. I had the Chimichurri steak and egg hash and it was absolutely on point -- flavorful, perfectly cooked, and fresh. My daughter ordered the Power Bowl and loved every bite. The Kale Tonic was super refreshing, and the orange juice was freshly squeezed -- which always makes a difference. Consistently good food, great flavors, and a spot we'll keep coming back to. read more

Everything was excellent. Crispy bacon, seasoned potatoes and eggs done just right for dipping the sourdough bread. Maure was great. Very attentive but not pushy. The restaurant was cozy even though its big. read more

A must if you're looking for a great breakfast and/or lunch spot! I ordered a breakfast platter - the eggs and sausage were moist and flavorful and the pancake was spectacular! The other people at our table had a salad, soup and a breakfast platter and everyone reported enjoying their meal. We shared a blue berry corn bread and that was absolutely wonderful as well! read more

The day after valentines day, I had the pleasure of dining in. Disclaimer: this is my new favorite brunch spot, offering spacious seating, clean atmosphere and great service. When it comes to trying new restaurants, the 2 things I look for are multiple food options, and creativity on the menu. Needless to say this restaurant checked all the boxes. Not your ordinary breakfast by far! I love how they blended ingredients, that you would normally see in Spanish dishes and meshed it with traditional breakfast. My dish was a great introduction to the first watch world, and definitely will be returning. 10/10 read more

What a gorgeous Day in Savannah to be out and about. I've been to the one in florida and was excited to go again. I couldn't stop thinking about their delicious lemon ricotta pancakes so I had to have it again. My husband had the salmon eggs Benedict which he said was ok. The service was pleasant and she was training an employee. She was nice and made some personal suggestions which we didn't care for but understood she was training. I just don't like when people assume I don't want something based on their preferences and their likings, Everyone is different. Would love to go back and try something different for sure. read more

Enjoyed a lovely brunch at First Watch on our way to the SAV airport. The service was amazing - thanks to Destiny and the wonderful staff. Destiny went above and beyond to sit our two large parties and we greatly appreciate it. I had the eggs Benedict on gfree toast. Always nice to have a gfree option. The service was fast and food quick! read more

Yes, you'll have to wait on the weekend. Yes, First Watch is worth the wait. We love a breakfast place that can bring some traditional options, fresh ingredients, and get everything to your table hot. Sounds simple? We're shocked at how disorganized breakfast places are and are happy to compliment First Watch. We tried the avocado toast, omelet, and bacon. All dishes (again) were fresh and served hot. Service was quick, flexible, and had zero errors. Our only constructive feedback is to pay at the table (e.g., Toast app) versus a more Shoney's (front counter) check out system. If you're sitting outside, it's hard to navigate through the crowd, get up to the register, then wait in line. We were on an airport run and would have loved to have just paid and been on our way. read more

Good food! Million Dollar bacon was delicious, actually my fave. It was a busy Sunday and the wait was about 30 min for a table which wasn't too bad BUT the wait for our food once it was ordered took about 45 mins. read more

Do you ever wake up thinking you need a delicious Belgian waffle? Well when you do, go straight to first watch. They have the best waffles, and a tasty breakfast menu, with light cocktails like fruity mimosas and deliciousness of the like. The service has always been great here. I like sitting at the bar, you car see outside, lighting is great and you can catch view of the entire restaurant, if you like people watching. read more

Roadtrip breakfast! I was questioning the pregnant friend before going on the trip about what places were good for breakfast & she referred to herself as a First Watch B****, lol. Ok- when you say it like that, let me google where there is one in Pooler, Ga- done! We departed my home at 5am and pulled into a parking spot at 7:04am, just in time for opening! Our group, two of us have food allergies- oddball food allergies, and the one pregnant one who doesn't quite know what will feed her cravings or make her nauseas. That did play a part at breakfast! I traded some of my compote that came with my waffle for strawberry jam on my friends plate- because she's allergic to strawberries! Everyone enjoyed their plates and there wasn't much tasting of each others dishes at this meal, but food was delicious and service fabulous! read more

Maybe new packaging should be considered for soups and grits; something more secure. To receive my order with the grits in the bag instead of the cup was very disappointing. That was the side in my meal. It was also my first time ordering from this location being a new resident to the state. I was hoping to add First Watch as one of my go-to breakfast places. read more

I was visiting Georgia and went to the First Watch in Hinesville on Sunday morning with my friend, before i drove back to Florida. I had been to the First Watch in Hollywood, FL which was really good. But, the HInesville, GA location was even better! The ambiance was family style for sure. We ordered the Smoked Salmon and Roasted Vegetable Frittata and the Bacado Omelet and split both in half. WoW! Delicious! The only thing that would have made it even better is if we could have ordered a couple of pineapple mimosas lol Shoutout to our server, Asia! She put both the smile and the service, on 'service with a smile'. The food came out right away and warm. The place was busy, but Asia did not lack in checking up on us to make sure we were fine. read more

Always fresh and even door dashed food is still hot and fresh. Good and clean with polite and professional staff

Great Breakfast. Tho we waited 15 minutes to perhaps 20 minutes. Even another table that was empty when we arrived and well after we set received drinks and food before we were ever waited on. We didn't even realize that right away because we weren't focused on that table tho we knew it was empty upon arriving. Table next to us as well empty a while. We know because we asked for the 2 seater instead to the right of it. Perhaps the waiter for us was busy but know one didn't address nor greet us other than the door keeper. After so very long there was a young lady we stop who was Bearcats asked who was the waiter for our side and she said she find out. But because we awaited so long she'd receive our orders out of courtesy for our waiter. We said thanks and then I said, we'd like to request you as our waiter. And that's a rap. Sunshine was awesome and we appreciate her service very much. Breakfast was awesome as usual and perhaps our waiter whoever he or she would have been was busy. However, someone besides the door greeter who sits the customer should come by the table to give drinks when your wait will be as such. Because I'm not norvarecwe over exaggerating the time we waited nor our experience. DO BETTER 1st WATCH! Saturday Morning September 5th 2024 OVER & OUT FranknKimm read more

Our experience was just okay. Seated immediately which was great and the place was clean, cute, and staff was friendly. Ordered the cinnamon churros, no cinnamon on them at all and they were so chewy and tough to eat. The salted caramel dipping sauce was good but it's probably not hard to pour caramel and salt it. For a meal I ordered the million dollar harvest hash with eggs over hard cause I can't have a runny egg while pregnant. The dish showed up with eggs that had even uncooked whites. I tried to slide them off the plate to be able to enjoy the dish without them and they broke spilling uncooked eggs everywhere. Our server came back about 15 minutes later and I had already eaten enough of my wife's potatoes to know I didn't want any other food. The hash was a mess regardless of the egg and the million dollar bacon just tasted like regular bacon. The server took the meal off which was appreciated but the check for $28 was still shocking! 2 coffees, a side, and an omelette with minimal filling, just disappointing. read more

I've been to many First Watches and this location is a below average quality and experience. Extensive wait times for food and inconsistency with prepared food compared to other locations. Toast not toasted, no butter for toast, potatoes border line raw, presentation subpar, and goes on. A few tables over I heard the same complaints. Corporate needs to investigate to save the brand. read more

Such a nice place with great food and good service. It has been pretty busy every time I've been on the weekend but it's not on the weekday. It is roomy place and gives you a homey feeling. Their hot chocolate is good. Their million dollar cinnamon roll is AMAZING. it's sad because they only have that every once in a while. If they had it on their menu, I would go every few days. I always get their traditional breakfast and get the potatoes subbed for their million dollar potatoes and seriously, it is one of my favorite foods ever. I like the to sub the bacon for normal bacon instead of the sweet and savory kind. read more

Server was rude until the very end when it was time to pay. I asked for over medium eggs and they gave me over easy with the egg whites not cooked. When they redid them the egg whites were still not cooked. By the third time they just passive aggressively browned the same eggs until they were almost burnt. They did give me scrambled eggs along with those by the third time. read more

I gave this place a 2 because my experience was horrible. I came in, super excited because I had heard many things about this restaurant and I was even more excited about the freshly squeezed juice. It seemed like a popular breakfast spot, so from outside, I couldn't wait to get in and see what all the hype was about. I was seated and placed my ordered which was the traditional breakfast with my eggs over medium and turkey sausage, a glass of water and the morning meditation. I distracted myself with my favorite pass time (pool) on my phone.. not realizing how much time had went by, then the waitress came to my table and said she sent my order back because my eggs didn't look good and that my food would be out in 2-3 minutes. Needless to say 20 mins later, the operations person came out and explained that my order had been accidentally cancelled, but nope.. it doesn't end there.. they finally bring my food out and the turkey sausage is cold, the eggs were runny and the potatoes weren't done. So I politely ask him for new ones, he says "sure I'll get you some well done potatoes" my response, "I just need them done", not well done, the ones I had you couldn't even cut with a fork. So he apologizes and gives me a gift card, "for my next visit" he also took my meal off the ticket. that's the reason for the second star in my review. I know mistakes happen BUT communication resolves most issues in this line of business. I am so disappointed in this experience. I wont' be back any time soon. On a brighter note; the squeezed juice was great and the reason for my first star. I hope your experience isn't anywhere near as bad as mine. read more

If you like cold, undercooked, unseasoned food and slow, disorganized service provided by staff that would clearly rather be anywhere else in the world, than this is the place for you. If you want food worth eating go anywhere else. Literally anywhere else. Denny's at 3 am after being hit the a tornado during an earthquake would be a better experience than eating at this place. It should be impossible to ruin bacon but this place managed it. They also forgot that cooking potatoes long enough to get them above room temperature is not only allowable but preferable. I'm certain it took me longer to type that sentence than they took to "cook" my food. The only part of my dish that was actually cooked long enough was the Brussels sprouts. Of course they were burned beyond being eatable but hey, at least I know that their stove actually works. In short, both service and food wise this was the worst dining experience I've had in at least the last 20 years. read more

Super busy on a Sunday afternoon brunch. You can check in on the app, but even then the app isn't quite accurate as far as when you'll be seated. We checked in and it said an hour wait, we got there an hour later and we had to still wait at least another 30-45 minutes. I would say that the reservation/check in is no good. I got the Chorizo Sunrise Sandwich because come on I can't pass up that opportunity! It looked pretty great as far as what it was though. After our wait, I was ready to eat. The decor inside was pretty much the same as every other First Watch. There was a lot of light coming through though which I guess is different to other locations. If you're looking for a brunch, this is a good spot. It always has been. But the hype of FW is crazy for this area as I think there's a bit of a shortage on brunch spots around this area. However, the sandwich I thought was pretty great, double patty and the flavor is definitely there. I ate it quickly and it was delicious. It also came with some greens, but I have to say that it was just average. There wasn't anything special about it, and I would have to say that there were some leaves that was questionable as far as the freshness. Overall, First Watch to me seems like it's all the same. It's a chain, that you can reliably depend on if it's what you're looking for. read more

I'm usually impressed with First Watch!! However my waffle was cold and I had to ask multiple times for basic things like creamer and sugar for my coffee. Which by the way got cold as I was waiting to get those items. Please step up your game at this location.

The food at First Watch is delicious! The staff are friendly and professional. I give them a A+. The coffee is bold and flavorful. The Juice Bar drinks are refreshing.

Unbelievably slow service. Not sure if they were short or nobody wanted to clean table but it was taking over 10 mins to clear tables. When we finally were seated we had to ask for our booth seats to be cleaned. The silverware was dirty as were the coffee mugs and had to be sent back. Love the food here but they could make a lot more money and have a better customer experience if they turned tables faster and kept things a bit cleaner. read more

I thought it was a cool brunch spot. I'm giving 3 stars because of service. I think our server forgot about us. Granted they were pretty busy but another server was way more attentive to us and I wish I remembered her name. She actually spoke to every table on the patio. Very nice young lady and funny. I have been dying to try for a while now and everything was just ok to me. My Chickichanga probably would've been amazing had I received it hot but it was like warm and I didn't want to complain. Plus our server was much older and probably backed up. She couldn't keep up. The bloody was basic and the bacon was nothing special, even though I was told that's the go to. I will give another try. Maybe during the week. read more
